Dear Ms. Kennett,
Introduction - This is where you explain what book you read and what important ideas you focused on. Briefly outline your project and explain its intellectual success. In one sentence, give an overall reason why you succeeded during this unit and what your grade should be (this should be the last sentence of your introduction).
Process Paragraph: What grade should you personally get and why? Reflect on the process of the project. Explain what you contributed - both intellectually and in the group work itself. Refer to attached documents (your pieces of process you've compiled). Talk about yourself and how you did what you did. Focus on your strengths, and how they helped you. Discuss a weakness and how you overcame it. Then conclude on a sentence that sums up the paragraph and explains why you should get that grade.
Project: What grade should the group get on the project? How does the form of your project connect to the book? How does it make the reader/viewer/player think? (a very important question to answer!) What about it makes it worthy of a final project? How did the group work together - was this the best project they could have created? What challenges did you have, did you over come them, and how? Conclude on a sentence that sums up the entire project and the grade you think it deserves.
Conclusion - Bringing everything together, use your strengths and weaknesses in this project to convince me what number grade you should receive and why. Include any last notes about what you've learned about yourself and how equipped you are to go into next year. End on a note that is powerful and captures you as a student!

Bird Feeders and Whaling Ships
In the opening lines of Moby Dick, the narrator, Ishmael, confesses to "a damp, drizzly November in my soul." One sure way to brighten November's damp and drizzly mood is to welcome birds into your yard with birdfeeders. Black-oil sunflower seed is especially popular. Hang suet in a wire cage to attract a Northern Flicker like this one. Then, just add water, and you're all set.

Bird Feeders and Whaling Ships
Written by Bob Sundstrom
This is BirdNote!
In the opening lines of Melville's masterpiece, Moby Dick, the narrator, Ishmael, confesses to "a damp, drizzly November in my soul." An eloquent phrase indeed – words that also capture the mood of these gray, potentially soul-chilling fall and winter days.
Ishmael's response was to go to sea on a whaling ship. [Creaking of ship] Not an option for most of us. But one sure way to brighten November's damp and drizzly mood is to welcome birds into your yard with feeders and birdbaths. The liveliness and calls of a batch of chickadees, nuthatches, jays, or finches will break the spell of a dreary day.
Hang up a tube-shaped feeder full of black-oil sunflower seeds. Scatter a mix of millet and other seeds on a platform feeder or on the ground. Hang suet in a wire feeder. The more choices you offer, the greater variety of birds you'll host. And nothing brings birds to a yard like a consistent source of water in a shallow basin. [Call notes of chickadees, Red-breasted Nuthatches, American Goldfinches]
If the bustle, color, and sounds of the birds don't break the dark mood, there's always that whaling ship. [Sound of ocean waves] [Creaking of ship]
Learn a lot more about inviting birds to your yard – and how to protect them when they arrive! Begin at our website, BirdNote.org. [Call notes of birds]

Nice. Best part, for me, is the soft focus, something I'm attracted to more and more. I'm finding the tack sharp we all strive for is starting to come across as a stick in the eye.
Something else I've been thinking about is whether or not we've lost some sort of permanence with digital (over film.)
Everyone loves looking through old albums and shoeboxes full of old snapshots. Will we ever sit in front of a device and flip through jpg's? Will future devices read jpgs?
They say it's not a photograph until it's printed…
Evidence of the Missing
Assignment #2 of my year-long photo challenge inspired by Henry Carroll's Use This If You Want to Take Great Photographs is from page 47: Re-photograph a photograph to change its original meaning.
My interpretation of the assignment took me into old photo albums to show the life-cycle of the candid family photograph. What was once meant to convey life, love, energy, can now only serve as a record of the past for today's generations and, inevitably, the evidence of something missing. And so, the meaning of our family snaps change over time, from one type of celebration to another: a celebration of what is to a celebration of the missing.
Up in two weeks: "Show beauty in the banal" from page 15 of Use This If You Want to Take Great Photographs.

Nice. Best part, for me, is the soft focus, something I'm attracted to more and more. I'm finding the tack sharp we all strive for is starting to come across as a stick in the eye.
Thanks. Glad the soft focus translated. I wanted the focus plane on the photo book and the rest to fall off, the photo being concrete evidence, the "life" portion of the photo being fuzzy/intangible. Agreed re albums and shoeboxes. Images seem more permanent and purposeful when printed, I think.

The Al Jazeera reporter who anchored the network's documentary implying star quarterback Peyton Manning used performance enhancing drugs is suddenly backpedaling furiously from the film's insinuation.
Deborah Davies, the reporter featured on Al Jazeera's The Dark Side: Secrets of the Sports Dopers, appeared on the Today show on Tuesday, protesting that the film never accused Manning of anything untoward. She added that the film only accused Peyton manning's wife, Ashley, of obtaining shipments of human growth hormone.
"That's it," Davies claimed. "That's the allegation." When Today show co-host Savannah Guthrie asserted that the film "suggest[ed] something larger" about Peyton Manning, Davies, evading the issue, responded that Manning never denied his wife received the growth hormone shipments. She insisted, "I have not seen a denial," later adding, "We are not making the allegation against Peyton Manning."
She also asserted, "We have not said that in the program. The only allegation in the program from Charlie Sly is that growth hormone was sent repeatedly from the Guyer [Institute] to Ashley Manning in Florida. We're not making the allegation against Peyton Manning… Let's make it clear what the allegation is. The allegation in the program is very simple, that when Charlie Sly worked in the Guyer [Institute] doing part of his training… the clinic was sending out not one shipment but repeated shipments of growth hormone to Ashley Manning in Florida. That's it."
Confronted by CNN Money with the accusation that Al Jazeera had made unsubstantiated claims, Davies replied, "That's really stupid… That's people not understanding it to start with." She added that Al Jazeera isn't "changing anything" and her investigative team stands by "everything in the program." She concluded, "When you have a big story that's out there, other people report on it. They get stuff wrong. Other people pick that up. They get stuff doubly wrong." Then she threatened, "There are going to be some huge developments on this story."
Ari Fleischer, George W. Bush's former press secretary, is acting as Peyton Manning's spokesman and replied, "Al Jazeera is backtracking and retreating… Their story was not credible to begin with and it's not credible now. Within 48 hours of the broadcast, Deborah Davies is now contradicting her own reporting."
The commentary during the film makes clear Al Jazeera was linking Peyton Manning to his wife's possible use of the drug. According to the Indianapolis Star, some examples of the film's insinuations include quotes like these:
And extraordinary claims, that raise questions whether an American sporting hero, Peyton Manning is linked to performance enhancing drugs.
Charlie Sly's claims would involve many other top players, but his most astonishing allegation concerns an icon of American sport.
Charlie Sly raised one final astonishing question about one of the most beloved American sportsmen … Fans consider Peyton Manning one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time.
Charlie Sly claims he was part of a medical team that helped Manning recover.
Sly is quoted in the film asserting, "Like growth hormone, all the time, everywhere, Florida. And it would never be under Peyton's name, it would always be under her name."
Charlie Sly is an alleged drug supplier who worked at the Guyer Institute, although his claim that he was working there in 2011 was dismissed by Dr. Dale Guyer, founder of the Guyer Institute, who said Sly only worked at the Institute as an unpaid intern for three months in 2013.
Peyton Manning has stated, "Any medical treatments that my wife received, that's her business. That has nothing to do with me. Nothing that's been sent to her or (that) my wife has used have I ever taken."

Life Together
Christ calls his Church to go forward into all the world with the Truth of His glorious Gospel. Acts 1:8 promises that God will pour out his Spirit on his people to be his witnesses to the ends of the earth. He calls us to make disciples of all nations, including our own and those far away. SGCC has a Deacon of Missions dedicated to overseeing these efforts, both locally and globally.
We believe the most effect method of outreach is at the "grass roots" level, where individual Christians generously serve their neighbors, friends and colleagues in their daily lives. But we also believe that cooperatively we can be effective in ways we can't individually.
Locally, we desire to serve our community by meeting the real needs of people, both spiritually and physically, for the purpose of exalting Christ, living out the gospel and enlarging God's kingdom in the Roanoke Valley and beyond. SGCC has served the Roanoke community with activities like service projects, neighborhood Vacation Bible schools, and street evangelism. We also support the work of the Blue Ridge Women's Center.
Globally, we have partnered with organizations like Sovereign Grace Churches and Global Partners for Peace & Development to increase our effectiveness in reaching the nations with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. In recent years we have been sending teams to Haiti for both disaster relief and evangelism/teaching. We also support missionaries and mission efforts through a monthly offering, and are dedicated to praying for people in closed nations around the world.

A film version of Stephan King's "The Dark Tower" book series is in production, and fans of King's work are eagerly awaiting it. The books are extremely popular with readers, but the film version has been plagued by various delays for years. Now that the production is actually in motion, reports from the set indicate that the plot of the movie is straying from what King wrote in his books.
All of this brings up the topic of how King's novels have been handled by Hollywood over the years. Some film versions of King's books such as "Carrie" and "Christine" have been raging successes both commercially and successfully. Others, such as "The Shining," have done well at the box office but have been less universally praised by reviewers. A few – think "Maximum Overdrive" – have been total flops.
Personally, I think that the absolute best film remake of a King novel is "Shawshank Redemption" starring Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman. Based on the novel "Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemeption," the film manages to retain the essence of the novel's message of hope and redemption while moving the narrative along at a fun and entertaining cinematic pace.
Both the novel and the film are excellent, and each has its own character and feel. The novel is able to get more into the back story of the protagonist while the film captures his struggle and ultimate triumph through its photography.

Demolition escalates in the West Bank
European leaders will meet in Brussels on Monday to discuss the escalation of demolitions by Israeli authorities of Palestinian homes and humanitarian aid in the West Bank. Despite six months of diplomatic talks between the EU and Israel, the rate of demolitions in the West Bank has spiraled, violating international humanitarian law.
Oxfam has witnessed first-hand the devastating impacts of these illegal demolitions on the lives and livelihoods of Palestinian men, women and children.
The time for talking is over.
Oxfam calls upon European governments to live up to their commitments and to start protesting and requesting compensation for the destruction by Israeli authorities of Palestinian homes and the confiscation of humanitarian aid in the West Bank.

The March-April 2018 issue of Worship Facilities Magazine offers articles about how to prepare, prevent and respond to church violence, a look into what church management software can do for your church community, and a piece on how a once popular nightclub venue was transitioned to become Shoreline Church's new home.
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – For a good number of churches, various aspects of upgrades are typically planned out over a series of years.
In the case of Living Faith Church, though, a church averaging between 450 to 500 congregants each Sunday, though, their roadmap included five distinct upgrade phases. Over a total of just nine months.
The final two phases, which were coordinated in June and July of this year, predominantly focused on the addition of environmental projection in the worship space in the approximately 30-year-old church, while also improving lyrics projection and streaming capabilities.
Leading the coordination of each phase were Adam Guess, the church's Media and Sound Director, and Monroe Hill, who works extensively on environmental projection, each part of the church's all-volunteer staff.
The goal of the multiple upgrade phases, explained Hill, was that "it was our intention to be sure that we were moving forward, and not be stagnant as a church."
As Hill elaborated, the church's lead pastor, Steven Curtis, has been in that position for the last four years, taking the reins from his father, who had held that position since 1977. "After he took over, he was being led in a different direction, in terms of attracting a younger demographic."
Regarding the need for change, Guess agreed, adding that "We were just behind the times. We had first talked about changing out the cameras to make the video look better on our live streams, but you couldn't change out just the cameras, without changing the lighting (part of the third phase completed in April)." Once the church changed the lights, he said, the need to replace the cameras became evident. Once the cameras were upgraded, the systems tied to live streaming soon followed, along with all of the backgrounds, "and that's how environmental projection got thrown in."
The last of the five install phases was finished by the third week of July. As noted by Guess, the final two took "about three weeks from start to finish, completed right before our Kid's Crusade," a summer event that includes puppets, refreshments, and giveaways. Between each of the five phases, and over the nine months of work, there were no delays or cancellations of services.
To avoid any potential hurdles during the individual phases, Hill said, "On a weekly basis, the pastor would ask what we could plan over the next week," to which the pair would then lay out install plans for certain gear prior to the next Sunday. "On a Friday or Saturday night, we sometimes might have been nervous, but each time we got it done."

Coming down from the trek was bittersweet. On one hand, we were looking forward to being back in 'civilization'…aka, proper coffee, hot showers and food other than noodles and lentils. On the other hand, we were sad to say goodbye to the fresh air, peacefulness and serenity of the Himalayas, something only nature and rural areas can provide.
We finished off our trek in the town of Jomsom. Some travellers choose to continue for another week on roads which, due to blasting and construction, are now filled with buses and jeeps. We opted for the daring bus ride down the mountain, which took 13 hours teetering on some of the sheerest cliffsides we've ever seen.

We managed to make it to Pokhara in one piece with our new friends from the trek: Suzie and Jordan (Canada) and Matt and Clare (England). We were also going to reunite with Toni and Bernie. We all stayed at the same guesthouse, Lotus Guesthouse, and therefore we were always meeting up on the balcony, garden or each others rooms to have some drinks and chats. The 8 of us had one "big" night out…and and by "big", I mean, we were home by 11:30. The Government has issued a law that all bars and restaurants must be closed by 11:00pm. Even so, we had a great night out playing pool, foosball, smoking sheesha pipe, drinking cocktails and listening to a Nepali cover band playing Western songs!

We ended up staying in Pokhara for two weeks. We enjoyed the small city, relaxing by the lake, hanging out with our friends, eating delicious food and having our morning Americano coffee. Other than going for a few walks, renting a canoe one day and having a picnic on the shores of Phew Tal (the lake), we just had lots of down time.

We were definitely getting antsy and ready to leave by the two week mark in this ultra relaxed city. We made our way back to Kathmandu and spent a few days there enjoying some of the sights that we didn't see the first time around. Walking the old, busy streets is entertainment in itself and even just having a coffee/tea and people watching is a great way to spend a day.

One day we did manage to break away from the coffee shop and went to see Durbar Square, the place where Kathmandu's Kings once ruled from. We spent hours sitting high up on temples built in the 17th century and enjoying the sights and sounds down below us. This area was a perfect example of traditional Nepali architecture and we enjoyed strolling around and taking it all in.

After 5 very memorable weeks in Nepal, it was time to pack up and say goodbye. The people of this country were some of the friendliest (if not the friendliest) we've come across in our travels. Every person we interacted with was kind, peaceful and gentle; and in my experience, that is something very special and rare. We enjoyed everything about Nepal, but in particular we will never forget the breathtaking Himalaya Mountains and our experience trekking through the highest peaks in the world. It will remain as one of the best memories of our lives. Dhanyabad Nepal.

Big White Farmhouse Renovation - Part 5
When my friends are all like my house is a mess ... my kitchen is a disaster - I sigh and say ... "I betcha mine is worse!"
|Dallas' parents who owned the house before us renovated the house shortly after they were married in 1974. Lots of memories and special times shared in this kitchen over the years. Excited to create new ones with our girls in our new space!
|This door leads to the pantry/side entry/stairs to the basement. This doorway will be covered up since there is an additional door to the entry/basement stairs from the living room. We will be creating a new pantry space.
|Eat-in kitchen table. This will be replaced by a center island with stools.
|On August 3rd the demolition of the kitchen began ... cabinets, island and appliances are removed.
|Corner where the fridge once stood.
|View into the kitchen. One chimney is out on the right. You can see the old laundry shoot in silver on the right. Cool but not very practical because our laundry is not in the basement.
|Drop ceiling is out in the kitchen and ceiling is also down in the dining room.
|Corner where the refrigerator once stood. Down to the lath board now.
|You can see our old laundry room to the left. We are creating a pantry room and laundry room from this space. The pantry will have a door from the kitchen. The laundry will have an entry from the back room which is the same as it's always been.
|Future pantry area.
|Second chimney is about to come down.
|Giant hole in the floor from the chimney.
|Lath board
|Goodbye chimney with no fireplace. Hey if the chimney was in the living room I would be all about it.
|Wall is completely down between the dining room and kitchen. Looking so much more open!
|This pocket door is closed to the living room. When open these three rooms (kitchen, dining, living room) will feel very open.
|Moving the doorway for the pantry and beginning the electrical updates. Can lights will be installed in the kitchen, dining room, a custom light fixture over the island and a chandelier in the dining room.
|Room framed up for the new pantry.
|Last week the kitchen and dining room were drywalled. Starting to look like a house again.
|Pantry is drywalled too.
|New window in the kitchen, just a smidgen bigger than the one that was there before.
|Doorway is drywalled over where you could entry the former pantry/basement steps.
|Loving how it's coming along!
|This space just feels huge to me!
The end is in sight, folks ... I'm excited to see the finished product! Stay tuned!!

(Image taken from Twitter.com/ChicagoCabbie)
A local Chicago cab driver is taking his business to a new level. Operating under the Twitter handle @ChicagoCabbie, Rashid Temuri reaches his customers through social media, according to a recent article on Ars Technica.
Here's how it works: Instead of operating through a dispatching service like most cab drivers do, Temuri will tweet his location and then quickly respond to a nearby customer in need. He can also be tracked on FourSquare.
For example, this morning he tweeted:
#Chicago! I'm at #ORD if U are flyin' in or in the area & need a #taxi let me know! 28° cold outside. Thanks http://4sq.com/ydWWo8
And apparently, Rashid says his connection to social media is good for business. He estimates his clientele is 90-95 repeat business – a factor he says is more enjoyable for both driver and customer.
"My goal is to change this business to the point when you get into a taxi you feel comfortable, welcome and if its possible entertained," Temuri said to Ars Technica's Jaqui Cheng. "When you call me, you know who I am and who will be showing up at your door."
For me, Temuri has a point. Especially when I've traveled alone on business trips, there's always a feeling of anxiety before getting picked up – what will the driver be like? Will the cab be clean? Will it smell funny? With Temuri, you know what you're getting every time – an advantage I think most people appreciate.
As far as other social media taxi apps are concerned, Temuri says his favorite is Taxi Magic, although the app charges additional fees to the drivers who use it. Still, the app lets you find a taxi and pay by credit card directly through the app. Convenient for customers, but for drivers like Temuri who already accept credit cards, not very helpful.
So next time you're in need of a ride in our great city, think twice before wandering to the nearest street corner to hail a taxi in the cold – @ChicagoCabbie is just a tweet away. For more information, visit Temuri's homepage.

Title: Mach 2.5 turbulent boundary layer
Description: In this image, Rayleigh scattering is used to visualize a streamwise cross-section of the density field of a turbulent flat plate boundary layer at Mach 2.5 in a plane parallel to the wall at y/delta = 0.72. The Reynolds number based on momentum thickness is about 25,000. The flow is from left to right. The Rayleigh scattering is enhanced by the presence of nano-scale water droplets that form in the nozzle as the flow expands to the freestream Mach number. The image has been false-colored to emphasize the diffuse edges of the low-density bulges (the "clouds") and the high-density of the edge fluid (the blue "sky"). A side view is also available. *NASA Langley Research Center

__It is still unclear as to just where and how the neighbor lady, Jan, and her daughter, Melinda, had been. Some secret government location in the U.S. They had spent most of their life there and were isolated from the rest of the world. When the dad came up missing, that's all they were told…'missing -permanent'. They had to get permission to move away from there, and never say anything about where they had been or anything else. They decided to move next door to us in a regular neighborhood. The mom Jan, became friends with my mom instantly. She had a million questions about regular life here. Daughter Melinda just sat quietly. Mel, as we all called her, was out of school now and she was a good looking, hot bodied girl. I was drawn to her right away. Her mom was pretty hot looking too and so friendly to me. They were over as Jan talked to mom in the kitchen, Mel and I sat on the couch. With no TV or computers, Mel only read old books for entertainment. I found out she had no contact with guys at all. Her schooling was in an all girls small school and another one for the guys….all separated. My mom had to leave but would be back in 30 minutes. As soon as she left, I had Jan on one side of me and Mel on the other. They had both been waiting for this opportunity. Jan sat real close and said: "Can you help us Brandon,….we need a guy to get us 'up to date' with this…kinda… new world were in. Dad was never home, and Mel has never had a date with a guy."

Kim Kardashian's representative has insisted the TV beauty has yet to pick the perfect venue for her upcoming wedding to Kanye West after reports suggested the nuptials would be staged at France's Palace of Versailles.
The couple, which is parents to baby North West, made headlines on Wednesday (04Dec13) after a story published on Usmagazine.com suggested the pair had decided to tie the knot at the famous royal palace on the outskirts of Paris.
However, Kardashian's spokesperson has now revealed the couple has not yet decided on a date or a location for the wedding, declaring the rumours to be "absolutely false", and adding to E! News, "They haven't even decided on a location yet."
The Stronger hitmaker proposed to the TV star last month (Oct13) at the AT+T baseball park in San Francisco, California in front of friends and family and a 50-piece orchestra.

Intestinal lymphoid hyperplasia (ILH) is a rare reason of recurrent introversion in kids and youngchildren. Surgical treatment has been recommended to handle this intestinal disorder.
It is a mild condition in which lymph follicles present in the intestine develops and creates huge visible protrusions of the mucosa. It may be symptomless or may be linked with stomach pain, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, and infolding.
The cause of lymphoid hyperplasia is yet to be discovered. It has been believed that this occurs in association with bacterial, viral, or parasitic infections along with allergic reaction to various foods. In adults, compared to the children, it has been witnessed to unearth in association with immune system deficiencies viz., acquired idiopathic hypogammaglobulinemia or human immunodeficiency virus infection.
Radiologically, ILH has been surveyed as a part of a spectrum of diseases including lymphoma. Lymphoma is extremely rare under the age of 1 year.
There is no consensus in terms of handling of patients suffering with Intestinal Lymphoid Hyperplasia; some support the "watchful observation therapy" whereas others endorse surgicaltreatment.
Few patients are often treated with antihistamine, with clearance of symptoms in 14 to 21 days; a few of these patients, who are neutral and did not show any response, were treated with steroids in a month or two.
In majority of the children with the severe type of the appendix and the terminal ileum were found, appendectomy was advised, while in some of the children who suffered intussusception frequenlty, terminal ileal resection and right hemicolectomy were administered.
Steroid treatment for ILH is very common therapy. It had been recommended more than 50 years ago. Yet, it is quite astonishing that there is no mention of this therapeutic modality in latest pediatric or pediatric gastroenterology textbooks.
A recently published case report emphasized the part of steroid treatment in an infant with bloody stool, diarrhea, and severe intestinal nodular lymphoid hyperplasia. The methodology by which steroid treatment influences intestinal lymphoid hyperplasia is still uncertain.
In a recent study, it has been speculated that intestinal lymphoid hyperplasia can manifest a long-term upregulation of intestinal immunologic performance as a reaction to luminal food antigens.
If this is to be believed, a lymphopenic impact of steroid therapy can be considered as the cause for alleviation in intestinal lymphoid hyperplasia after steroid treatment.
Being a general intestinal finding on imaging research in kids and children, ILH might of course have been an incidental conclusion, which had resolved spontaneously.
No other potential reason for ILH, like as intestinal infections or hypogamaglobulinemia, could be recognized. Hence, except steroids, no medical treatment could be provided to these children. Surgical approach may be recommended at any stage of treatment.
It is therefore advisable that when recurrent intussusception unearths in fusion with ILH, and no other prominent factor can be detected; trying steroid therapy is worth considering prior to committing the child to either frequent attempts of pneumatic or hydrostatic reduction or opting for radical surgical resection approach.

Hometown: Dumont, NJ
"My dad is the Chief of Police in my hometown, and I like to pick his brain on long car rides. He says policing is not easy and is never going to get easier, but he tells me he thinks I'm up for the challenge."
Ever since she can remember, Molly Conner has wanted to become a police officer like her dad.
"I've had an interest in policing since I could walk and talk. There are so many photos of me in my childhood wearing his hat and uniform," Molly says. "Whenever anyone asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, I said, 'a police officer.'"
So when it came time to choose a college, Molly was sure to choose one with a reputation in criminal justice…and a track team. She did some research, plugged in her search criteria and found STAC. She visited, spoke with the track coach and was hooked.
"STAC reminds me of home. It's a small town and a small school and it just feels comfortable," Molly says. "When I visited, I knew I was going to fit in. It's my home away from home."
In addition to her full course load, Molly is a hurdler, jumper and sprinter on the Spartan women's track team. She is also part of the Aquinas Leaders Work Scholarship Program, designed to provide real-world work experiences related to a student's major. To date, Molly has assisted campus safety with crime prevention research and ways to stop these crimes from happening on college campuses. She has also worked with the Dumont Police Department, helping with clerical responsibilities.
Upon graduation, Molly hopes to become a police officer and eventually work with a prosecutor's office on solving homicides and other violent crimes.
"I want to do something that will benefit the community," Molly says.
She says studying criminal justice and forensic psychology at STAC is setting her up for future success.
"One of my favorite professors of all time is Dr. Chayet. She has taken me under her wing and has even gotten to know my family," Molly says. "Being in a small school means you're able to get that kind of attention from a professor. At a bigger school, you wouldn't get the individual attention or help that you want."

European Judaism
A Journal for the New Europe
Aims & Scope
Visit the new European Judaism website here!
Published in association with the Leo Baeck College and the Michael Goulston Education Foundation.
For more than 50 years, European Judaism has provided a voice for the postwar Jewish world in Europe. It has reflected the different realities of each country and helped to rebuild Jewish consciousness after the Holocaust.
The journal offers stimulating debates exploring the responses of Judaism to contemporary political, social, and philosophical challenges; articles reflecting the full range of contemporary Jewish life in Europe, and including documentation of the latest developments in Jewish-Muslim dialogue; new insights derived from science, psychotherapy, and theology as they impact upon Jewish life and thought; literary exchange as a unique exploration of ideas from leading Jewish writers, poets, scholars, and intellectuals with a variety of documentation, poetry, and book reviews section; and book reviews covering a wide range of international publications.
"European Judaism makes an important contribution to the quest for a global ethic. It explores the inner workings of the Jewish world, with particular insight into the psychological and spiritual challenges of life after the Shoah. But at the same time it is a medium for dialogue, examining in particular the relationship between Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. It is indeed a journal for the 'new' Europe." —Prof. Dr. Hans Kueng, Tuebingen
"By setting current problems and issues against the background of tradition with such scholarly precision and insight, European Judaism is making an invaluable contribution to the effort to restore to European Jewry the continuity which was so tragically ruptured during the Holocaust." —Karen Armstrong
European Judaism is now available on JSTOR!

When buying extra virgin olive oil, look out for bottles bearing the SA Olive seal, the official representative body of the South African olive industry. It's always important to support local enterprises and we love that the SA Olive seal guarantees that when you choose an extra virgin olive oil, you can expect to experience all the enjoyment and benefits of a fresh oil extracted from newly harvested olives.
The seal is a guarantee of product authenticity, confirming that the producer commits to quality standards, including chemical and taste requirements. Samples of olive oil are regularly submitted to accredited laboratories for chemical analyses and to the SA Olive Organoleptic Tasting Panel for tasting to confirm the absence of defects, in line with internationally accepted methods.
Read about why you should be buying extra virgin olive oil versus just olive oil.

Hello old friend. And here we are. You and me on the last page.
She paused, fingers set on the rounded keys. It had taken her over a year to master the typewriter- she kept finding her hands falling into the familiar laptop keyboard position, kept reaching down for the mouse pad. There was other stuff, too- relearning how to drive the old cars, using the old phones. It had taken her and Rory ages to realize that the reason the living room furniture didn't feel right was the lack of a television.
Still, they had adapted. And they had waited- waited for news, waited for a sign, waited for the moment when it all fully sunk in. They would never see the Doctor again. They had to say goodbye. But how?
It was three years after Amy left the Doctor in the graveyard (well, 71 years before, really) that River came back and gave her the idea of writing an afterword.
By the time you read these words, Rory and I will be long gone, so know that we lived well and were very happy.
"How do you know?" Rory surprised her, coming up behind her with a cup of black coffee and reading what she'd typed over her shoulder. "How do you know we'll have lived well and been happy?" He leaned down, level with her. "We've only just got here."
"I think it's safe to assume," she said with a smile, and leaned up to kiss him on the mouth. Returning to the typewriter, she frowned. "I don't know how to write this. What do I say? What do you say to a person you'll never see again?"
"Tell him we love him," said Rory. "I mean, sure, he got us into some trouble. We all had our fights. But seriously, Amy, where would we be without the Doctor?"
She snorted. "Well, you'd be dead about… seven times." He grinned, but they were both remembering it. The fall from the rooftop, Rory dead of old age floors below. Never again.
And above all else, know that we will love you. Always.
"Do you ever look for him?" said Rory suddenly. "Look up the street expecting a blue box to appear, or check behind you… to see if he's keeping up?" He was looking out the window now, and with his face turned away Amy could see the nostalgic tilt to his mouth.
"I don't think we'll ever really stop."
Sometimes I do worry about you, though. I think, once we're gone, you won't be coming back here for awhile and you might be alone, which you should never be.
Don't be alone, Doctor.
"He'll be fine," said Rory, though he sounded as though he were just trying to convince himself. "He's got the TARDIS."
"Mad man with a box," Amy said. She remembered stepping inside that box, watching a whole world expand inside of it, watching the Doctor's pleased expression at her reaction, like a child showing off his favorite toy.
She stared at the paper in front of her, sticking out of the typewriter, so final. Amelia's final farewell. "Why is everything else so easy?" she pondered aloud. She'd picked up a job at a local paper shortly after showing up with Rory in 1938, and since then she'd written dozens of articles, not just travel pieces but current events, crimes, parades- she'd even dipped her toe in sporting events, and these were the late thirties! Women in journalism were rare, and even rarer were women so dedicated, who could write the same articles as the men did. She'd made herself quite the icon, not that she was aware. She had no idea how she'd be remembered, no idea that young girls across the world would be inspired by her, no idea that some would grow up to be the great names in journalism. One day, a girl called Sarah Jane would read one of her articles and it would change her life.
And yet… "What do I write?" Amy looked up at Rory, fingers drifting anxiously over the typewriter keys. "I don't know what to write."
"Just…" He thought about the running, and the traveling, and all the mad, impossible things they'd done together. He thought about rebooting the universe and fighting a band of angry dolls and escaping a burning Dalek planet. "Tell him a story."
And do one more thing for me: There's a little girl waiting in a garden. She's going to wait a long while, so she's going to need a lot of hope. Go to her. Tell her a story. Tell her that if she's patient, the days are coming that she'll never forget. Tell her she'll go to sea and fight pirates, she'll fall in love with a man who'll wait two thousand years to keep her safe, tell her she'll give hope to the greatest painter who ever lived, and save a whale in outer space.
Rory was tearing up, but he smiled at her. "That's nice. I like how I'm in it." She laughed and squeezed his hand. "When did you save a whale in space?"
"That's a whole other story," she said.
Tell her this is the story of Amelia Pond, and this is how it ends.

How to Stick to a Diet
How to Stick to a Diet
Creating a diet plan is hard enough, but sticking to it is even harder. You might have been dieting for a few months, or just a few weeks, and are finding it hard to stay focused and motivated. If you really want to stick to your diet, then you have to find a way to stay on track, avoid temptation, and to make your diet plan as fun as possible. If you want to know how to stick to a diet, just follow these easy steps.
1 Make a game plan and stick to it.
You can stay motivated by setting goals and keeping them throughout the course of your diet. If your goal is just to "lose weight," then you won't be nearly as motivated as you would be if you had a specific goal and a plan for how you would reach it. Here's what to do:
First, figure out how much weight you want to lose, and how quickly you want to lose it. Make sure to set realistic goals. You can't lose 50 pounds in a month, but you can lose five pounds in a month if you stick to your plan. Your end-date could be a specific time like your wedding, your friend's beach barbecue, or the start of a new school year.
Set a game plan for each week. How much weight do you want to lose per week? Pick one day to weigh yourself each week. Don't weigh yourself every single day or you will become obsessed with your weight.
Set a workout routine for each week. Though you can't plan your workout schedule months in advance, at the beginning of every week, plug a few workout dates into your schedule.
You can stick to your plan by keeping a log of what you ate, how much you worked out, and how much weight you've lost each week. The log can be helpful, but make sure it doesn't make you obsess over every single thing you eat.
You can also keep a diary that charts your dieting thoughts and analyzes what worked and what didn't. This will help you get in touch with yourself.
2 Stay mentally strong.
Whenever you begin to slip, you should remind yourself why you're dieting. Do want to get in shape for bikini season, or is your weight loss seriously affecting your health? Do you just want to lose those pesky 20 pounds you gained since college? Whatever your reason, keep telling yourself that you're determined to stick to your plan so you can reach your goal. Here are some ways to stay mentally strong when you feel like giving up:
Keep an image in your head of what you are planning to change about yourself, like mental before and after photos. If you ever think you can't be bothered to go to the gym, or want to splurge on a tub of ice cream, just remember your goal image.
Keep motivational quotes on your computer or posted above your desk. This will help you remember to stay focused on your reasons for dieting.
If you're trying to return to your former weight, you can keep a picture of that time period on your desk.
Keep an index card that lists your reasons for dieting in your purse or wallet, so you can read it any time you forget why you're doing the diet in the first place.
3 Reward yourself for good behavior.
It takes a lot of mental strength to stick to a diet, and you should remind yourself that you're doing a great job from time to time. If you reward yourself for good behavior, then you'll be more motivated to continue staying tough and losing weight. Here's how to do it:
Reward yourself every five or ten pounds. Depending on how much weight you plan to lose, you should set up a rewards system every time you reach a new goal weight. You can treat yourself to a sundae or to your favorite meal, and will feel better for it.
If you've been really healthy during the week, reward yourself on the weekends. You can't eat really healthy every day of your life.
Don't forget to tell yourself how amazing you are every time you lose a pound. Your rewards for losing weight don't always have to be food related. You can tell yourself that you'll buy a new pair of shoes if you keep up your diet for a month.
4 Don't diet alone.
You'll be much more motivated if you have a diet buddy or other people to share your dieting woes with. This will make it easier for you to stay on track, because you will have someone there to encourage you. Here's how to make sure you don't diet alone:
Find a diet buddy. If you are trying to improve your body at the same time as someone else you know, then you can share tips, work out together and motivate each other. Setting a gym schedule with that person, or planning weekly healthy meals with that person, can help you stay on the right path.
Join a weight loss organization such as Weight Watchers. Whether you go to Weight Watchers meetings or just use the online resources, you will be motivated from knowing that there are thousands of people who are in the same boat as you.
If you can't find a diet or workout buddy, find someone you can confide in, such as a friend or significant other. That person can help you stay focused and can listen to you if you're having a hard time following your diet.

So, I've been seeing a lot of blog posts lately with extended countdowns on how to tell if you are a REAL writer or not. A lot of them have key points like "You are a people watcher!" or "You are an insomniac!". I even saw strange key points, in a blog that shall not be named, that said "You are a social reject!" "Your real life is boring and uneventful!" even "You think about ways to kill your enemies on paper!" What the *bleep*!!!?!?!?!?
Apparently writers are social shut-ins, who creepily watch strangers, hyped up on coffee with no real life of their own to set their scratchy, beady eyes on. (Wow, yeah, actually that does sound pretty close, now that I think of it…. 😦 whatever. )
Nevertheless! I have my own, indefinitely all inclusive, list to see if you are in fact a REAL writer….here goes!:
1. You write.
…wow…that was a short list. Let that sink in.
Well, that sums it up for me.
Goodnight internet!!!

Developmental Asset of the Month
Asset #22 School Engagement – Young person is actively engaged in learning.
Local Data: 65% of La Plata County youth report school engagement as described in Asset #22. (Assets Survey 2015)
Essential Question: In what ways does our family reinforce commitment to learning for our children?
Tips for increasing positive school engagement:
- Stay in touch with your child's school experience by asking specific questions about their day – including what went well and what was challenging. Reinforce a school subject by having a whole family conversation about it at the dinner table.
- If your child experiences boredom in the classroom, talk with his or her teacher about providing enriching assignments that will give more challenge. Seek mentors outside of school who can provide more depth to topics or issues your child is interested in to cultivate a love of learning.
- When you talk about school, stay positive. Let your children know learning can be an enjoyable life-long pursuit.
